Q

Describe the process of what to do if ICS fails or is Inop?

A

If there is no smoke or fumes and below 10,000 cabin altitude, you may drop your mask to communicate. Consider using VHR for inter-cockpit comm.

If unable to do either of those, the FCP shall set the mirrors towards the RCP and be ready in case of a visual signal
